Abstract excerpt
The theory of immunosurveillance posits that T cells eliminate clones harboring nonself-antigens generated by somatic mutations. Although a role of immunosurveillance in cancer is supported by evidence, whether it affects precancerous expansions has not been well established. Here we studied the association between MHC-variant binding and risk of clonal hematopoiesis (CH), a blood precancer state, predicting MHC...
